Li Changqing noticed something amiss with Gu Yuena a few months ago, and he wondered if it was a legitimate or illegitimate transaction involving sex.

He was worried that Gu Yuena would develop feelings for him, so he only focused on exercising each time and never showed any concern for Gu Yuena. After finishing, he would put down the Pill and leave.

Thus, Li Changqing and Gu Yuena had no emotional exchange for three years, yet Gu Yuena still showed him those feelings.

Judging from Gu Yuena's expression and words just now, although we can't say that Gu Yuena has fallen in love with Li Changqing, we can be sure that there are definitely signs of that.

Left with no other option, Li Changqing had to nip the problem in the bud.

Gu Yuena turned her head and gave a haughty snort, "You? You don't deserve my affection. Don't flatter yourself. If we weren't stuck in this godforsaken place, do you think I'd want to leave? Seriously, when are we finally going to get out?"

Looking at Gu Yuena's expression, Li Changqing looked doubtful. Could it be that he was really overthinking things?

However, it's highly unlikely that Gu Yuena would be allowed to leave.

After all, this is not something Li Changqing can decide.

After Hun Xuzi arrived, he didn't know where he would be sent, but it was highly likely to be the Soul World.

As for the Amethyst Winged Lion King and Gu Yuena, who were subordinates of Li Changqing, they knew the location of the Heaven Hall of the Hall of Souls, and would certainly not let them leave easily.

Therefore, they only had two choices: either go to the Soul World with Li Changqing, or be placed under house arrest in the Heaven Hall.

To gain true freedom, Li Changqing must wait until he breaks free from the Hun Clan.

In other words, they would wait for the Hun Tiandi to obtain the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill -Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, and then Li Changqing would secretly seize Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill when it was finished being refined.

Only then will they be truly free.

However, according to the original work, it will be about fourteen years before the Hun Tiandi obtains the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.

Li Dao suddenly laughed and said, "Didn't you, Gu Yuena, hide in the space beneath the Lake of Life for tens of thousands of years while being chased by the Divine Realm in the Douluo Continent? Why didn't I see you complaining during those tens of thousands of years?"

"It's only been three short years, and you can't even stay here anymore?"

Gu Yuena was speechless. She wanted to refute it, but found that it seemed to be true, and she couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Li Changqing continued, "Actually, leaving this place isn't a problem. I estimate that soon, a big shot who has taken a liking to me will come to pick me up and take me to another place. At that time, you can naturally leave with me."

After saying this, Li Changqing left without further ado, entering a quiet room to calm his mind and cultivate, while awaiting news.

Gu Yuena was slightly taken aback, a rare look of joy appearing on her face, but she quickly realized that it was just a change of location for house arrest.

Gu Yuena sighed deeply, her eyes staring blankly at the bottle of Pill on the bedside table, her heart pounding with anxiety. When would this period of house arrest finally end?

Several months passed quickly.

For the past few months, Li Changqing has been cultivating in his quiet room, and with the help of Pill, he is about to break through to the eighth level of Dou Zun.

Suddenly, a powerful surge of Dou Qi emanated from Li Changqing's body, marking his official breakthrough to the eighth level of Dou Zun.

Immediately afterwards, Li Changqing raised his apparent cultivation level to the Four-Turn Dou Zun, and deliberately made his aura appear somewhat disordered, pretending that he had just broken through.

A few more days passed.

That day, Li Changqing was sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, staring blankly ahead, muttering to himself, "So much time has passed, why haven't they come yet? Are they going to leave me here waiting?"

Suddenly, a deep voice rang out; it was Gu You's voice.

"Li Changqing, a distinguished guest has arrived. The Hall Master has ordered me to inform you. Quickly follow me to the Great Hall."

Li Changqing abruptly stood up, immediately opened the door and went out. "This subordinate greets the Second Heavenly Venerable."

Gu You sensed Li Changqing's Four-Turn Dou Zun cultivation and nodded slightly. "Not bad, you've actually broken through to the Four-Turn Dou Zun. Come with me quickly."

Li Changqing nodded repeatedly, following closely behind Gu You.

On the way to the Great Hall, Li Changqing asked, "Second Heavenly Venerable, who exactly is this distinguished guest that you personally came to inform me? Could you please tell me in advance so I can be mentally prepared and not offend this important guest?"

Gu You voice, "I don't know the identity of that distinguished guest either, but the Hall Master showed him great respect, and the aura emanating from him was even stronger than that of the Hall Master."

"That distinguished guest must have come specifically for you, so they probably won't make things difficult for you. Just be careful."

"Thank you for the reminder Second Heavenly Venerable."

While Li Changqing said this on the surface, he was actually already pondering the identity of this so-called distinguished guest.

The person who came must be someone Hun Miesheng treats with respect and whose strength surpasses Hun Miesheng's; that person must be Dou Sheng of the Hun Clan.

If all these conditions are met, the only one who might come to see Li Changqing in person is probably Hun Xuzi.

Gu You led Li Changqing into the central Great Hall. Now, the person sitting on the Great Hall main seat was no longer Hun Miesheng, but a gentle and seemingly peaceful middle-aged man in black.

The man's soul aura carried the chilling aura unique to the Hun Clan, causing Li Changqing's heart to tremble.

Hun Miesheng sat in the second seat.

After bringing Li Changqing to the Great Hall, Gu You left.

Li Changqing feigned confusion and first bowed to Hun Miesheng: "Your subordinate Li Changqing greets Hall Master."

He then bowed to the middle-aged man in black seated at the head of the table and asked, "May I ask who this senior is?"

Hun Miesheng stood up and introduced, "Li Changqing, this is the Hall Master person I mentioned to you before who truly values you. He is the number one Alchemist in Central Plains, a grandmaster capable of refining Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, Seven-Star Dou Sheng expert, and the chief Alchemist of the Hun Clan, Hun Xuzi."

Li Changqing feigned shock at Hun Xuzi's identity, then revealed a look of delight. "This junior greets Senior Hun Xuzi. It is an honor for this junior to be valued by Senior Hun Xuzi."

Hun Xuzi smiled slightly, and a powerful wave of Soul Force spread out from his body, sweeping over Li Changqing and carefully examining every inch of Li Changqing's body.

If it were anyone else, after this ordeal, their true nature would be completely exposed to Hun Xuzi, leaving them with no way to disguise themselves.

But Li Changqing was different. He possessed the Kunpeng Method, and everything that Hun Xuzi discovered was what Li Changqing wanted Hun Xuzi to know.

Hun Xuzi quickly withdrew his Soul Force and nodded, saying, "Indeed, it is Heaven Realm soul, though only at the initial stage, it is incredibly solid. Where is the Bodhi Pill you refined? Let me see it."

Li Dao nodded and took out a Jade Bottle from his Ring of Holding.

Hun Xuzi raised his hand and took the Jade Bottle into his hand. The Bodhi Pill flew out and hovered in front of Hun Xuzi.
